I went looking for a water bottle sling with a wallet/phone pouch after finally kicking my pop habit 7 months ago and replacing it with a good insulated water bottle, and since I’ve looked into Travelon anti theft purses before, this was a top result in my search. This is definitely good quality, well made, fabric is durable and cleans up well (toddler smeared spaghetti sauce on it just two days after receiving it), wallet has enough room to fit my 25-30 cards (a lot of kids/a lot of insurance cards to carry) my iPhone SE 2020 in an Otterbox Defender though it’s a tight squeeze, and even though the manufacturer specs of my 32 ounce insulated steel Owala FreeSip water bottle are slightly larger than what Travelon lists as the maximum size to fit in this nifty water bottle sling, it fits PERFECT! The wallet that fits my phone was the only way I was able to keep myself from carrying a “Mary Poppins bag” with my kids, and this fixed my problem of constantly losing my water bottle! The less than pleasant thing I’ve found is that the strap is a bit narrow for a bag that’s meant to be worn crossbody style with a few pounds worth of water/liquid weight, so it would be nice if they made it wider and/or added a strap pad to make it more comfortable when you have to wear/carry it for extended periods of time. I do question the clip on the strap being able to withstand someone trying to rip the bag off of me, but it IS metal, so it may be stronger than it looks. I’ve only had it about a week, but it seems worth the MSRP just for the quality materials and craftsmanship, so i have hope that it’ll last me quite a while.

This is well made and the zipper locks prevent pick pockets. Fits my bottle well and has a nice place for ID. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I purchased the Boho Water Bottle tote in heather grey. It is very sturdy. There do not appear to be any loose threads or holes anywhere. In the first picture you can see it is about 10 inches in depth and can fit a fairly tall water bottle. It has one small lockable pocket at the front which, even with a narrow water bottle in the pouch, is difficult to access. I can imagine if you had a wider bottle in there it would be very tight. It has three credit card slots and a pouch that would fit a cell phone. The interior is a lovely grey stripe. You could not fit more than a little cash, credit card, phone, and *maybe* a passport at a pinch. There is no way sunglasses would fit in here. The pocket is RIFD safe. There is no coin pocket. The water bottle pouch itself is wide and lined with soft waterproof plastic material. With a wide water bottle there would be no room for anything else, but with a narrow one you could probably fit hand sanitizer/wipes/whatever in there too. The strap is lovely and soft, and flexible. Much more so than other travelon bags which leads me to believe the strap is not slashproof. This may not be an issue as what thief would look at a water bottle tote and think, "Oh yes, that's the one I'm going for"? I can imagine in travel situations this tote would be very safe as you could make sure the locking pocket stays against your body rather than facing outwards. Overall, very impressed with this minimalist tote.

I loved the first (gray) one I ordered last year so I ordered a second one in black. This bag is lightweight, well made with a padded design. I traveled to Europe with the first one I ordered There was enough room for 3 - 4 credit cards, cell phone and lipstick - all in one compartment. Best of all it has an insulated area which is easily accessible for a bottle of water. I found that using a store bought bottle of water was best because it kept the bag "light." I did have a travel mug, but when I filled it the bag became a little too heavy for my use. This is a must have even for around town.

Just as described. Fits credit card, id, money, phone charger with brick. Keys. Still have room for a bit more. Fits comfortably crossbody style. And I'm a plus sized woman. Love the anti theft protection

This excellent for a minimalist, very practical and carry the essential plus a bottle of water to stay hydrated on the go Love it

I carry water with me everywhere, this is perfect for carrying essentials and my water bottle. I was worried the zipper compartment would be too small for my phone based upon previous reviews. My iPhone plus fits perfectly and I’m happy with the quality of the bag. I have a costly, quilted version of an insulated water bag that I use sparingly . I’ll use this one for daily at work.

I love Travelon's products and had high hopes for this bag. But the front pocket is just a *hair* too small, and I have to really struggle to fit my iPhone in there (which is the only place it can go). If it were even 1/4" bigger, it would be a huge improvement to allow the phone to slide in and out comfortably. And they say the strap is supposed to be cut-resistant, but it doesn't feel like the straps on my other Travelon bags - where you can feel the wire in them - and of course the only way to test it would be to cut it. I still use it as it is a decent water bottle carrier on short walks, but I probably would not have bought it had I known about these two drawbacks. I intended it for a trip to a location where pickpockets run rampant, and this is not quite secure enough for me. On the good side, for "local" use, the water bottle pocket is insulated so will help to keep your drink cold and prevent condensation.

I wanted a small crossbody for travel that could hold my phone, tiny wallet, and a few small items. Bonus points if it could also hold a water bottle. Also bonus points if it was anti theft. And it should look like a regular bag. This one does very well. The water bottle section holds my standard bottle. The zipper section (with anti theft zipper pull) has card pockets, room for my largish phone (in a slim case, and enough extra room to tuck in a pen, a tiny wallet, and a couple small items. NOT enough room with the phone there to also hold my bulky car key. When I'm not carrying a water bottle, the water bottle section is a great place to put my phone and sunglasses, which lets me put my keys in the zipper pocket. The black quilted fabric looks nice and doesn't announce itself as a travel bag or a water bottle holder. I definitely recommend.

I really wanted to love this one - I have a trip coming up in Europe and wanted something to carry water and other items. This is just too small....I could not fit a pair of reading glasses and lipstick in it with my phone. So bummed as I thought it would be perfect.
